I almost hate to post mine after reading all of yours. Currently, I'm on a budget bike that I bought new in 08, a Yamaha FZ6. Right now the speedometer shows 33,500. So I guess around 8,000 or so for me for now. I hope to get a sport/touring bike sometime fairly soon and the numbers will go up.

I racked up 9000 miles in 7 weeks vacation last year...does that count. 2 years before that I only did 5000 so I'm getting better in the USA...

I got my new Heritage in Sept. It's on 8K miles now. I put 4.5K on the Switchback which would have been more if I had liked riding it and didn't think it was gonna fall apart on my ass. So, I put an additional 3.5K on my '98 Wideglide. Miles could be anywhere between 15K and 35 a year.

I live in NW Indiana & last season was my 1st. I racked up over 8,000 miles. Doesn't sound like much, but my 883 Hugger & I ran 70+ down to the Smoky's & I did the Dragon twice & LOVED it:)

Purchased my motorcycle new back in 02 currently coming up 63000 so average abt 6000 a year.I use it every day for local commuting & short overnighters up n down the coast.Tho for a number of years I also used my truck a lot.
Typically I drive short trips around town for errands,not a lot of long distance riding.
I am amazed at some of the mileage being posted,tho I suppose I would rack up more if weather was ok & I had the means to budget more rallys. ; )

I usually get in between 15K and 20K miles a year. Retired and have lots of time to ride. A fixed income limits my amount of play time although I do make make lots of touring rides and some bike events. The other factor involved in accordance with Toby Keith is "My mind says yes you can, but my body says Oh no you can't.

How Many Miles Do You Average In A Years Time?
Average year >5000 & <10,000
Most in a single year = 15,000
Once the weather breaks almost never drive unless transporting one or more of the following:
* The Old lady
* The dog
* Something large
